Drupal is a powerful and flexible open-source content management system (CMS) that is widely used for building websites and web applications. However, like all software, it needs to be updated regularly to ensure that it remains secure and functional. One of the most significant updates in recent years is the move from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9.

At Douce Infotech Private Limited, we understand the importance of upgrading to the latest version of Drupal and we are proud to offer a range of services to help you make the transition. Our team of experts is highly skilled and experienced in upgrading websites from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9, and we are committed to making the process as smooth and seamless as possible.

Drupal 9 was released in June 2020, it is the latest version of Drupal and it is not just a simple update, but a whole new version that brings significant improvements over Drupal 7. Drupal 9 is built on the same codebase as Drupal 8, so many of the improvements in Drupal 8 have been carried over to Drupal 9. This means that upgrading from Drupal 7 to Drupal 9 is a much more significant process than upgrading from Drupal 8 to Drupal 9.

One of the main benefits of upgrading to Drupal 9 is that it will greatly improve the security of your website. Drupal 7 is no longer officially supported by the Drupal community, which means that it will no longer receive security updates. This leaves your website vulnerable to potential security threats. Upgrading to Drupal 9 will ensure that your website is protected by the latest security updates.

Another benefit of upgrading to Drupal 9 is that it will greatly improve the performance of your website. Drupal 9 is built on the latest version of Symfony, a popular PHP framework, which means that it is much faster and more efficient than Drupal 7. This will help your website load faster and provide a better user experience for your visitors.
